Answer:

Cost of inventory =$73,280

Explanation:

The term 3/10 implies that the company would get a discount of 3% off the gross purchase price if its settles its account within 10 days of purchase. Since the payment was made 9 days after then the  discount is secured.

The cost of inventory =  the net purchase price + the freight charges

Net purchase price = Gross amount - discounts

Net purchase price = 74,000 - (3%× 74,000)=$71780

The cost of inventory = 71,780 + 1500= 73280

Cost of inventory =$73,280
